What is COIDA Registration?

COIDA Registration is the process of registering your business with the Compensation Fund so your employees are covered for work-related injuries or occupational diseases, and your business can obtain a COIDA Letter of Good Standing (where required).


How is it done?
COIDA registration is completed using your business and payroll details, including your industry classification. Once registered, you’ll be able to submit your annual Return of Earnings (ROE) and pay the assessment so your COIDA status remains compliant.

Why is registration Important?
    • Workplace Protection: Registration supports employee access to compensation for workplace injuries and diseases.
    • Client & Site Requirements: Many contracts require an active COIDA registration and a valid Letter of Good Standing.
    • Avoid Compliance Risk: Registering early helps prevent delays when submitting ROEs and reduces the risk of penalties and assessment issues later.

How does the process work ?

Apply Online

Fill in your personal details and company details. Takes about 10 minutes.

Make Payment

Pay using your preferred payment method, e.g. credit card, EFT or ATM deposit.

Application is Lodged

We submit your application to DoL and keep you updated throughout the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

The aim of the COIDA Act is to provide for compensation in the case of disablement caused by occupational injuries and diseases, sustained or contracted by employees in the course of their employment, or death resulting from such injuries and diseases. COIDA basically prevents employees covered by the act from suing their employers for damages in terms of common law.


An employer must register for COIDA with the Commissioner within seven days after the day on which he employs his first employee.

If your are an employer then you must register with the Department of Labour for COIDA. Your company must also be registered with the UIF in order to be eligible for the Government Relief Fund. Your employees will also not be able to claim COIDA benefits if you are not registered for COIDA.
